Derek Adams gives his verdict on 5-1 defeat

Our defending was abysmal and the will to try to score a goal wasn’t good enough either. I think we should take all the blame in the result today and not give Yeovil too much credit because we were really, really poor

16:54Chris Errington

Derek Adams reaction to come

It will be interesting to hear what the Argyle manager makes of that game. He expected a very difficult test against a fired up Yeovil and that is exactly what the Pilgrims got.

Yeovil looked ready to start the season now. There is plenty for Argyle to work on.

16:51Chris Errington

Full-time: Yeovil 5 Argyle 1

It has been a very sobering afternoon for Argyle, who conceded the first goal as early as the third minute and were caused problems all game by Yeovil.

Argyle did hit the post twice, and Yeovil ‘keeper Stuart Nelson also made some decent saves, but their defending - both collectively and individually - was very poor.

Lots to work on during the Diutch training camp next week.

16:44Chris Errington

Free-kick opportunity for Argyle

Graham Carey has another free-kick on the edge of the Yeovil penalty area, this time in the 84th minute. His previous one hit a post. This time, it is tipped over the crossbar by Stuart Nelson for a corner.

16:39Chris Errington

Ten minutes to go

Yeovil still hold a commanding 5-1 lead as we enter the closing stages at Huish Park. Argyle midfielder Conor Grant has just fired well wide from 20 yards.

16:32Chris Errington

Tafari Moore comes on as a seventh Argyle substitute

Former Arsenal academy graduate Tafari Moore replaces Joe Riley at right-back in the 73rd minute. Just central defender Peter Grant yet to be used off the bench.

16:25Chris Errington

Yeovil proving far too sharp for Argyle

Argyle have played against much lower standard opposition than them this pre-season and seem to be paying the price for that today.

They are well off the pace against a Yeovil team who have already played against Swansea City and Bristol Rovers.

16:20Chris Errington

Yeovil now 5-1 up!

An hour is on the clock and Yeovil now lead 5-1. Striker Alex Fisher receives a psss from one of Yeovil’s trialists and races clear.

He takes the ball past ‘keeper Harry Burgiyne before rolling it into the empty net. It might only be pre-season but this is embarrassing for Argyle.

16:12KEY EVENT

Yeovil take 4-1 lead

It is not getting any better for the pilgrims in the second half. The trialist substitute breaks clear down the right and his low cross is fired high into the net by Alex Fisher.

It is 4-1 to Yeovil in only the 52nd minute.

16:11Chris Errington

Yeovil have also made three substitutions

Yeovil replaced goalscorer Diallang Jaiyesimi, defender Bevis Mugabi and windeman Jordan Green at the start of the second half with Alex Fisher, Gary warren and a trialist.

16:09Chris Errington

Graham Carey goes close for Argyle

Argyle are awarded a 47th minute free-kick around 25 yards from the Yeovilgoal. Graham Carey steps up and curls the ball over the defensive wall but it hits the post, with Yeovil ‘keeper Stuart Nelson well beaten.

16:05Chris Errington

Argyle make six changes at half-time

Coming on at the start of the second half are goalkeeper Harry Burgoyne, defenders Niall Canavan and Ashley Smith-Brown, holding midfielder Yann Songo’o, winger Lionel Ainsworth and striker Calum Dyson.

The players who have gone off are Kyle Letheren, Ryan Edwards, Gary Sawyer, David Fox, Ruben Lameiras and Joel Grant.

15:47Chris Errington

Yeovil lead 3-1 at half-time

Argyle have conceded as many goals in that first 45 minutes as they had done in their previous five pre-season games.

Rhys Browne has struck twice for the Glovers and Diallang Jaiyesimi was also on target for the Glovers, who have caused the Pilgrims’ defence plenty of problems.

Joel Grant got Argyle’s goal in the 17th minute. Their unbeaten record in pre-season is in jeopardy.

15:39Chris Errington

Graham Carey receiving treatment

Argyle’s talisman is briefly down on the pitch receiving treatment from physio Paul Atkinson for what appears to be an ankle problem. He slowly hobbles off but then returns to the action. He’s moving okay.

15:31KEY EVENT

Yeovil go 3-1 ahead

Rhys Browne gets his second goal of the game in the 30th minute and it is a cracker. He beats Kyle Letheren with a superb volley from outside the penalty area.

15:29Chris Errington

Argyle continue to press forward

Right-back Joe Riley gets Argyle on the attack with an excellent pass forward to Graham Carey, who checks back onto his left foot but his shot is blocked behind for a corner by Yeovil centre-back Shaun Donnellan.

Argyle have got into this game after a very shaky start. They trail 2-1 in the 28th minute.

15:21KEY EVENT

Goal for Argyle

Argyle’s period of pressure is finally rewarded as Joel Grant coollly slots low past Stuart Nelson to reduce the deficit to 2-1 in the 17th minute.

That is Argyle’s 20th goal of pre-season and Grant has got four of them.

15:17Chris Errington

Now Argyle hit the post

A poor clearance from Yeovil ‘keeper Stuart Nelson reaches Argyle midfielder Conor Grant. With an empty net at his mercy, his 25-yard shot hits the left post and the ball goes out for a goal kick.

15:16Chris Errington

Superb double save by Yeovil's Stuart Nelson

First, midfielder David Fox tries a low left-foot shot which is pushed away for a corner at full tretch by Yeovil’s keeper.

Then, from the resulting corner taken by Conor Grant, Jamie Ness has a free header but his attempt is kicked away by an outstretched leg from Nelson.

15:14Chris Errington

Yeovil take a 2-0 lead

Argyle are all over the place defensively and Rhys Browne has profited from that by giving Yeovil a 2-0 lead in the 11th minute.

He is not closed down and gets in a shot from the edge of the box which Kyle Letheren gets a glove to but the ball still ends up in the net.

Yeovil are good value for this two-goal advantage.

15:08Chris Errington

Yeovil are firing on all cylinders

There is tremendous speed about Yeovil’s early attacking play. Jordan Green has just played a one-two and sped into the Argyle penalty area, past Jamie Ness, but fired into the side netting. It was a good chance to make it 2-0.

15:06Chris Errington

Who is Yeovil goalscorer Diallang Jaiyesimi?

The 20-year-old has been signed on a season-long loan from Championship club Norwich City. He clearly has plenty of pace and his goal was very well taken.

15:04KEY EVENT

Goal for Yeovil

Striker Diallang Jaiyesimi shows a clean pair of heels to Argyle defender Scott Wootton and as Ryan Edwards tries to close him down he curls a shot past goalkeeper Harry Burgoyne.

It was an excellent finish and Yeovil lead 1-0 inside three minutes.

15:00Chris Errington

Kick off

We are under way at Huish Park. Both teams have green shirts, but Argyle’s version is much darker than Yeovil’s so there is no colour clash.

14:58Chris Errington

Only two stands open at Huish Park

The terraces at either end of the pitch are closed so Yeovil fans are in the main stand and a good amount of the Green Army are opposite them.

14:48Chris Errington

Argyle off to the Netherlands tomorrow

The Argyle squad will spend next week at their Dutch training camp in Delden.

While they are out there they will cross the border into Germany to play SV Schermbeck on Tuesday before facing MVV Maastricht on their 3G pitch on Friday.

14:36Chris Errington

Argyle XI match report and reaction

A young Argyle XI drew 0-0 away to Dorchester Town on their new 3G pitch at the Avenue Stadium last night.

14:30Chris Errington

Matty Kennedy has a new club

Former Argyle loan signing Matty Kennedy has signed for Scottish Premiership side St Johnstone today. That ends any speculation about a possible return to Home Park.
